Halloween 2010 Scrapbook Layout

Created this scrapbook layout of Halloween 2010.
Features: the pumpkin my hubby carved.
Since my daughter was away at college there was
no photo of her in a Halloween costume like in previous
years so I added the Halloween card I made for 2010 to
the page.

The pumpkin is an artificial Styrofoam pumpkin
and the pattern is from Pumpkin Masters titled
"Castle Mania."

The tags in the bottom right corner are journaling
tags.


I worked a bit longer on this scra
pbook layout
compared to others I have made a
nd was glad
with the end result.
